Fantasy Impact:
Martinez’s 2.48 ERA and 91 strikeouts in 72.2 innings last year anchor his new $18M deal Friday, covering 2025-29, though his ninth-inning role vies with A.J. Puk and Kevin Ginkel for Arizona. The 23-year-old secures stability. Fantasy managers in all leagues should roster him, banking on his heat for saves or high-leverage value in the Diamondbacks’ 2025 bullpen.
